    A day off today and heavy snow fall.
    Made a start on this British sailor from Wee Friends to kill some time, beardy head is from Hornet for that Hipster look.

    Good start and maybe one of the best ways to kill time, pale flesh tones looks realistic. We don't see ww2 British seamen figures too often, thank you for sharing this.

    Really nice work so far - I've looked at the wee friends figures before on Fleabay and wondered how they paint up. The answer is very nicely in this case :)

    Cheers

    Wow. Thanks.
    Base is jus't a block of polystyrene faced with embossed plastic card, balsa wood and balsa foam for the top.
    Don't know if this is any use, I recieved it from a great Dutch guy at IPMS Telford last year.
    It's full of how too and inspiration.
